What's a good day in our homeschool?

  • When we read "Romeo and Juliet" together and remember to do all the different voices, and act out the sword fights

  • When a friend calls to say, "History in the making! Turn on Channel 6!" and we do, and we watch the 17th Chief Justice of the Supreme Court get sworn in, and have a discussion about the use of the Bible for the swearing in, and what if someone's a pagan and they don't want a Bible, and why have there only been 17 Chief Justices, and what does it mean to be the Chief Justice

  • When I have to run the carpool to Tae Kwon Do, and we listen to "Carnival of the Animals" in the car and have fun guessing which animal is being portrayed

  • When the two teenage girls are goofing around together, just being silly, and then they both pile into the rickety old wing-back recliner at the same time and it collapses under them, leaving us all speechless at first, and then dissolved in laughter.


  • Well, that business about the chair breaking wasn't exactly the best part of the day, but it sure was funny at the time.
